Hey all! Worked pretty hard on this beautiful cursor set. The great part is that it has good contrast, sizing and smooth animation! You can find it here:

Custom Cursors


White dotted spinners for the Default Windows cursors (working and busy)

Previews:













*jagged edges are due to GIF image compression, the actual cursors are smoother.

How to install:
Extract/place the cursor files from zip in the cursor folder (usually C:\Windows\Cursors) then got to mouse pointer settings and browse for the installed files after selecting the working and busy states. Apply or even save the new scheme under a new name, to easily switch back between different cursors via the drop-down theme list:

A complete tutorial on changing mouse pointers can be found here:
Mouse Pointers - Change in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

Installing a cursor theme:
Complete cursor packs can include an install file (install.inf) right-click -> install should install the new mouse pointer theme entirely. To use the new theme, select it from the list: (Figure 2 -> Figure 3).

Changing or installing a cursor theme manually:
To use the new cursor file(s) first unzip/open the downloaded file. There you find a folder and/or in that folder the needed files. Then you can place those (extracted) files, the static (*.cur), or animated files, in this case, (*.ani) anywhere you want (Windows cursors are placed in "C:\Windows\Cursors" so this might be the ideal place where you'll need to browse to the files).

You then need to access mouse settings from Control Panel -> Mouse or by right clicking on the Desktop -> Personalization
Figure 2:




That will open the cursor settings then go to pointers:
Figure 3:




You can double-click the ones needed to be changed or select each one and go to browse. Here we browse to our cursor folder needed (where you placed the extracted cursor files).
Figure 4:




After all is changed you can even save (see below: select "save-as" and enter a theme name) the cursor theme (scheme) as a new scheme and the settings will be kept for later use, in case the cursors get changed by you or the Windows Themes.

That's it.

 

Paragon Driver for Windows

I have the same issue. WIn10 sees the drive in device manager and in devices and printers but still cannot read and write to my Seagate backup +. for Mac Went through steps as suggested by Microsoft and it returns that I have latest driver.

I have contacted support for both Paragon and Seagate. Let's see what the reply will be Tuesday after Labor Day.
